Obviously that's a falsehood.
For your education and edification, here are some ethnic and religious wars and genocides that currently are being completely ignored by pretty much everyone.
The Tigray War: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tigray_War#:~:text=The%20Tigray%20War%20was%20an,(TPLF)%20on%20the%20other.
More than 250,000 dead, along with extensive human rights violations such as rape.
Myanmar Civil War: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myanmar_civil_war_(2021%E2%80%93present)
Myanmar and the Rohyngya people: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rohingya_people
The sad history of the Kurds: https://www.cfr.org/timeline/kurds-long-struggle-statelessness
Civil War in Syria (speaking of the Kurds): https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_the_Syrian_civil_war_(2023)#:~:text=As%20of%202023%2C%20active%20fighting,occasional%20flareups%20in%20Northwestern%20Syria.
Native Americans: https://www.bia.gov/service/mmu/missing-and-murdered-indigenous-people-crisis
War in Sudan: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_in_Sudan_(2023)#:~:text=A%20war%20between%20the%20Sudanese,Khartoum%20and%20the%20 Darfur%20region.
10,000 dead, millions displaced. The day I recorded this podcast, I doomscrolled through my news feed. Apparently there are several new earpods coming out! The only source who wrote about Sudan was Al-Jazeera. 1300 dead in Darfur. I could go on but you get the idea. Nobody wants to discuss these horrific conflicts; I have little doubt that soon this miserable war will join those ranks. As many as 5700 Native American women and girls go missing every year, but no one is marching in Times Square over it, are they? Am I heartless for pointing this out?

hoooooo boy we got so much to say. The editing on this sucker is bare minimum and I can't even GAF at this point.
For the record I stand by my opinion on Ben Shapiro!! We actual real Jewish people have books, man. Books on how to keep your woman happy. Some going back several hundred years. And it's sadly clear he ain't never read a one of them. BOOOO, shame on you, sir!! Apparently no accident his initials are BS.

Here's Hank Jr in all his glory:
Lordy, I have loved some ladies
And I have loved Jim Beam
And they both tried to kill me in 1973
When that doctor asked me
"Son, how did you get in this condition?"
I said, "Hey, Sawbones
I'm just carrying on an ole family tradition"
So don't ask me
Hank, why do you drink?
Hank, why do roll smoke?
Why must you live out the songs that you wrote? Stop and think it over
Try to put yourself in my unique position
If I get stoned and sing all night long
It's a family tradition
You, Me, And Whiskey is by Justin Moore and Priscilla Block, sorry for missing the credits there.
We be loyal scouting polyamorists!

The Beauty Myth, by Naomi Wolfe. I am not kidding, it’s a blockbuster of a book.
How Stella Got Her Groove Back, by Terry McMillan. I believe there is also a movie based on this novel. I do not ref this in the episode but it's quite apropos.

John Gottman, who coined the phrase "the 4 horsemen of relationship apocalypse," has written several books, including Why Marriages Succeed or Fail, and The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work. His work did not save my marriage. However it did improve my other relationships.

NRE: new relationship energy, aka that time early on where you still think their every quirk is adorable and mostly you are a pain to be around because you are sooooooo in love.
There's no pirates in this episode. Sorry. But there are a lot of red and yellow flags.
Shout out to the awesome guys who do the Waving The Red Flag podcast! It's got nothing to do with this episode! But I just love them.

NRE: New Relationship Energy. This is the wonderful early stage where you are just so drunk on the awesomeness of this person. You're probably missing something and also probably being a pain in the patoot. But OH is it ever fun.
I kissed a girl and I liked it. Or did I? Did she? WTH just happened here anyway?

Fancy Jargon:
I like to make up names for people who are either theoretical/don’t exist, or whose name I don’t want to use for any particular reason.
Esteban: any imaginary date
Svetlana: also any imaginary date
My sincere apologies to anyone out there who is actually named Esteban or Svetlana. I have never met any of you.
Exteban or Svetlanex: any former partner whose name you no longer speak
Although I did name my ex-husband (my wasband) by name a whole bunch for a while there, it’s definitely time to let him rest in peace, and to go forward in peace myself. One thing about polyamory, as The Ferret remarked, is that it’s a small world. If you are the sort of person who trashes their ex, well, everyone can see it and will soon understand that the problem is probably you. So try to be on good terms with your exes, or at least not on terms of open warfare. As Will Smith said, “keep their name out yo mouth.”
Divine fire, Old Scratch, racism, rudeness gets the results it truly deserves. It’s Bible time, y’all!
The text I reference is 2 Kings 1.2-1.18. The translation I prefer is the Jewish Theological Seminary translation. I do not currently have a favorite New Testament to recommend, as I have not developed enough expertise in that text to give myself airs just yet.
